20 Habits that make you fat

Eating fat won't make you fat, any more
than eating money will make you rich. Calories make you fat, and most
"low-fat" or "fat-free" foods actually have just as many
calories as their full-fat versions, because of added sugar and chemicals. And
there's no debate on this one: Since we made "cut down on fat" our
favorite food craze roughly 30 years ago, the U.S. obesity rate has doubled.
Among children, it has tripled. That's a failed food policy if ever there was
one

Here are the 20 eating habits you can replace right now:

FAT HABIT #5: Drinking soda-even diet!
The average American guzzles nearly a full gallon of soda every week. Why is that so bad? Because a 2005 study found that drinking one to two sodas per day increases your chances of being overweight or obese by nearly 33 percent. And diet soda is no better. When researchers in San Antonio tracked a group of elderly subjects for nearly a decade, they found that compared to nondrinkers, those who drank two or more diet sodas a day watched their waistlines increase five times faster. The researchers theorize that the artificial sweeteners trigger appetite cues, causing you to unconsciously eat more at subsequent meals.
